Name: Balraun Darkthorn
Gender: Male
Age: 96 Seasons
Species: Fox
Occupation: Balraun was a seer at birth, now using his ability to work for the highest payer. Once he gains the trust of whomsoever is hired him, he will manipulate the truth of his sights for his own personal gain.
Physical Appearance: A red fox garbed in countless jackets, coats, and all fashions of material. All together the cloths gives him a much larger appearance than his real size. This helps him stay warm, look more threatening, and especially makes him harder to search. In his younger years he suffered a horrible burn that disfigured his right arm. It is now well hidden under bandages, and is barely used for anything. All over his clothing, strung in, and hanging down are tons of little trinkets. Rocks, crystals, feathers, bottles with poisons and other liquids are just some of the objects he carries. Most of them serve him no use other than appearance, as though they were all special tools used by seers. It’s fair to say that most of Balraun is hidden underneath the mass of things he wears. All that can be seen of him is his left arm, long bushy tail, pierced ears, and parts of his face. He wears a rather large hat that lays on his back, and hides his right eye. His left eye has an eerie yellow shine to it, and is said to be the source of his abilities. However his right eye shines just as the other, it is merely not seen by most beasts.
Possessions
Balraun carries a few knives, and daggers on him. They are all hidden well in the maze of clothing he wears. One in particular is a red steel dagger wrapped in with his disfigured arm, his choice of weapon if all others must be removed or have been found. Besides weapons he carries a bag of rocks, and a deck of card like leaves. These are used to humor beasts that wish to know their fortunes, Balraun uses is mind alone for the real fortunes.
Personality:
Balraun is a very odd character, usually staring blankly at beasts he comes across. He talks about very, and random things. He talks in a very low tone, which almost requires your complete concentration in hearing. He speaks this way for good reason, his voice becomes raspy when he speaks above a whisper. So raspy in fact, that it’s almost unbearable He will act as friendly as he can, making him look like your best friend. In reality he is just waiting for the opportunity to betray you with his fortunes. He gets along with dibbuns the most, firstly because they usually don’t concern his schemes, and secondly because there young and fully believe in things like seers.
Strengths:
Balraun is very smart, he will take any happenings to the best of his advantage. Determining a way to lie about what he sees, then using that lie to get what he wants. The lie can manipulate beasts into helping him, or basically just get them killed. His biggest strength is obviously his ability as a seer, he can see a beast‘s past just by looking at it, and he can see it’s future by a simple touch.
Weaknesses:
Though he can see any beast’s future it always cuts him from the picture, he also can’t read his own future. This prevents him from knowing what beholds himself, thus preventing him from being able to prevent his possible demise. He is not a very good fighter, relying on stealth full stabs to the back with his daggers. All the clothing and trinkets he wears also hinder his speed.
History:
Balraun does not have much of a history, he’s spent much of his time as a traveling fortune teller. Wandering the roads looking for an opportunity to strike it big, and apparently he already has. Most of this things he wears other than the trinkets are very valuable items.
Relationships:
Balraun has friends beside him, he works alone and lives that way too. Most beasts that he befriends usually end up betrayed, lost or lying dead somewhere.
Other
I know how to do real card readings if anyone is interested, there just for fun but it adds a bit more realism to what Balraun does.
